Unable to show Custom Header in Open API UI


How to set Custom Header when using Open API 3? I am using Spring Boot + springdoc-openapi-ui example. In this example I am looking to pass the different headers in the request. Below configurations doesn't show option to select the customer header.

What else do I need to change?

@Bean
public OpenAPI customOpenAPI(@Value("${springdoc.version}") String appVersion) {
 return new OpenAPI()
      .components(new Components().addSecuritySchemes("basicScheme", new SecurityScheme().type(SecurityScheme.Type.HTTP).scheme("basic"))
      .addParameters("myHeader1", new Parameter().in("header").schema(new StringSchema()).name("myHeader1")).addHeaders("myHeader2", new Header().description("myHeader2 header").schema(new StringSchema())))
      .info(new Info()
      .title("Petstore API")
      .version(appVersion)
      .description("This is a sample server Petstore server. You can find out more about Swagger at [http://swagger.io](http://swagger.io) or on [irc.freenode.net, #swagger](http://swagger.io/irc/). For this sample, you can use the api key `special-key` to test the authorization filters.")
      .termsOfService("http://swagger.io/terms/")
      .license(new License().name("Apache 2.0").url("http://springdoc.org")));
}

Solution

  • You can add your custom Header to your operation documentation using the Following annotation @Parameter(in = ParameterIn.HEADER).

    For example:

    @RestController
    @RequestMapping("/api")
    @Tag(name = "contact", description = "the Contact API")
    public class HelloController {
    
    @Operation(summary = "Find Contacts by name", description = "Name search by %name% format", tags = {"contact"})
    @ApiResponses(value = {
            @ApiResponse(responseCode = "200", description = "successful operation", content = @Content(array = @ArraySchema(schema = @Schema(implementation = PersonDTO.class))))})
    @Parameter(in = ParameterIn.HEADER, description = "Custom Header To be Pass", name = "Accept-version"
            , content = @Content(schema = @Schema(type = "string", defaultValue = "v1", allowableValues = {"v1", "v2"}, implementation = PersonDTO.class)))
    @GetMapping(value = "/contacts", /*produces = { "application/json", "application/xml" },*/ headers = {"Accept-version=v10"})
    public ResponseEntity<List<PersonDTO>> findAll(
            @Parameter(description = "Page number, default is 1") @RequestParam(value = "page", defaultValue = "1") int pageNumber,
            @Parameter(description = "Name of the contact for search.") @RequestParam(required = false) String name) {
    
        return null;
    }}
